How Michelle Obama has become Hillary Clinton's 'tremendously effective' surrogate
CBC News Website ^ | Oct 16, 2016 5:00 AM ET| | By Mark Gollom

Michelle Obama and Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton reportedly don't have the most congenial relationship, owing to tensions that can be traced back to the bitter 2008 primary campaign.

But now, eight years later, as Clinton makes her run for the White House, the president's wife may be Clinton's most effective political advocate.

"I think she's a tremendous asset," said Myra Gutin, a communications professor at Rider University and author of The President's Partner: The First Lady in the Twentieth Century. "She is just a tremendously effective surrogate. Michelle Obama is able to talk to people in a way in which Hillary Clinton can't."

Obama attracted much attention this week with her powerful speech in New Hampshire, where she made a passionate endorsement for Clinton while denouncing Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's "shocking and demeaning" comments about women....

Michelle is shilling for Hillary for one reason, and one reason only... Hillary has dirt on her, or her husband, or both of them.... The Obama's and Clinton's put up with each other. Period!

When Hillary gets desperate (and she is desperate) she pulls out all the stops and if that means reminding the Obama's that she can destroy them, then that's exactly what she does. I'm not sure what dirt she has on them, but it's obviously powerful enough to put Michelle in the awkward position of attacking Trump and feinting support for Hillary to avoid being sprayed with her venom.

Agreed. There should have been at least a “barf alert” indicated.

“...surrogate...”

The elephant in the room here that the MSM is blithely ignoring is:

WHY is Hillary Rotten Clinton sending out SURROGATES just a few weeks ahead of the election and the reporters are not covering the reasons for this?

The basic premise that this is all fine needs to be exposed. This is NOT fine.

The American taxpayers are paying for Michelle and Hussein’s travels to be campaign surrogates for Clinton and this is not OK.

Hillary Clinton is most likely home on an L Dopa drug holiday and it is not being questioned.

This is not being investigated and these people call themselves professional journalists? is this considered journalism?

Seriously?

Michelle O’s big fat gift to TRUMP

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3480415/posts

Michelle said to ‘women’: “Rise up againt Trump!”

1. Her husband already did ‘rise up’, ‘flaunting’ a notable member to a group of flight attendants. [*a*]

2. Tag-team that with tax funded viagra for perverts and rapists [*b*], and here goes.
